Lawyer J.. W. Wilcox, the grizzled veteran
of Titusvile, who was injured by stepping
from moving train at Cory the other day,
is the leading character in this seriO-cOmie in
cdent, which has never before been printed.
Ministers were a triae scarce in Grand
Army of the Republic Post up the creek, Of
which Wilcox was amember, and he was elected
Chaplain. His chief duty was to open the
meetings with prayer, and never having set
himself up as a praying man the prayer was
printed on a card so he could get through with
it with less mental effort. Wilcox carried the
card around in his pocket along with his to-
bacco and things, and when he came to use it
for the first time the printing was considerably
obscured. After the meeting had been called
TO order, Capt. Wilcox stepped to the front,
took out his card and began to scrutinize it
closely. He regarded it carefully for . moment
and then began 20 read. deeiphering the print
ing with much difficulty. 20 Lord, he began,
